Corporate hog roast in Albury, carved to order
A summer party for staff in Albury doesn’t have to mean a restaurant booking. Keep everyone on site with a hog roast. For client hospitality and away days, we can cook halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and crackling and more.
For farms and rural sites near Albury, we can cook in the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Questions from Albury
Is Albury too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Do you come to Albury?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your staff will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
